Editor's Review ★★★☆★

AudioBook Atlas

Dominic Thorburn's narration anchors 'The Dare,' bringing a gritty realism to the story. His portrayal of the central characters is particularly strong, capturing their vulnerability and transformation as the narrative unfolds. The dual narrators, Kristin Atherton and Laura Carmichael, bring varied tones that perfectly match the different personalities of Lizzie and Alice, enhancing the overall listening experience. However, some scenes feel rushed, which can detract from the tension. Despite this, 'The Dare' is a compelling listen, thanks to its well-crafted plot twists and strong performances. It's a must-listen for fans of psychological thrillers who enjoy a complex narrative with depth.
